Ded sexy Brian

Thanks G, and I know how you feel about black basses :D

BB, big +1 to above about Nevermore... Gorgeous bass, you should be proud.

Just curious, what's the logic on the switch that takes the J pu's to full on? Instant slap switch without getting messing w eq? Or do you have another tonal goal or technique in mind?

Thanks Nat. Not quite sure what Mr. East had in mind originally, but that's about what I use it for. The goal of this one was to create a nice little slap machine, mostly double thumb, hence the lighter gauge strings, and it just makes it more convenient to "set it and forget it." No messing about when I need to flip over to a more bridge based sound that's dialed in.

What kind of knobs are those? Are they available for other laklands with the LH3 installed?
Oh yes, and extremely cool bass for sure. I would be afraid to even touch it :p

Those are the Modern knobs only available with John East preamps. They are not standard issue from Lakland.

Nice!
'Reminds of the new Navy's X-47B....

I was thinking more towards the Aurora, but that works :ninja:

"Define 'irony': a bunch of idiots dancing around on a plane, to a song made famous by a band that died in a plane crash."
 
Thanks Doude, came out very nice indeed.

Can't take all the credit for the black covers, that came about from a discussion on the sound I was after. Lakland did a smash up job, went the extra mile and put together one hell of a bass.

Sound is a little more modern than your average JO. The 4494 type pickups give it a bit more punch and the J-retro, well you know...

Really glad you like it and it came out the way you wanted it.....

Yup....know the j retro well!

Would love to hear clips
 
Rehearsing for a community theater show. Using the new (to me) 5501. For one song a teenager that plays guitar and mandolin swaps to bass and I play guitar. When we swap back the bass sounds completely different. He didn't know what the knobs were so he turned them all wide open. It sounded pretty good that way. It never really occurred to me to try that.

Just picked up some big splits to upgrade but now I'm wondering if the secret to the mk1 is to crank everything.

Hmmmm...dunno...could be. Don't you love young players at times?

They seem to have no rules.....

We have a couple of younger kids ( high school) st church and I must admit to picking up a thing or 2 from them ...
 
Ouch!

Why?

We found out a couple of weeks ago that my wife had cervical cancer. The surgery was yesterday and I have not been able to sleep between hospital, kids and managing work via smart phone. The good news is that they are positive that they got everything out and that it had not spread. We are waiting on pathology to confirm.

So when we get pathology back, I'm drinking a bottle of whiskey either way.

Thoughts are with you, it takes a lot out of a person dealing with all that.
